All classes have undertaken surveys to find out just how many languages are currently spoken in our school, and the results are now proudly displayed on our classroom doors, showcasing our diversely multicultural and multilingual school community.
In Year 5 we had a special EDoL lesson, where , among doing lots of languages-based activities, we also watched a video of a spectacular 4 year old Russian polyglot - do you know what a polyglot is?

We also had some great discussion and debates about languages, with some very insightful comments.
